sweatalot Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Have they had access to the suspects yet, taken their own DNA samples? I would have though that would be number one on their priority list. Gathering a few facts first will enable them to qualify how the two boys answer questions. Unlike the RTP parading both of the boys publicly to reenact the crime, the Brits will likely prefer to interview them separately and compare responses as is fundamental to investigating, rather than staging a duet reenactment. Would be the logical way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inutil Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) I not sure why people are arguing about 'authority'. They seem to be missing the point somewhat. This isnt the UK, they arent interpol. Its Thailand and Thailand has its own police force. How the Brits would LOVE to not be involved here. But they are. They are because the investigation is a farce and it requires observation on procedure. The police sent there cannot and will not interfere outside of their remit. But what they will do is report their findings to the relevant authorities in the UK. These findings may be mundane confirming that the RTP are acting in good faith and the evidence against the pair is considered genuine and free from influence. Or it could be absolutely explosive. Hence, observation. They are there to observe. The problem here is that they might well do exactly that. And when they report their observations, things may happen. They do not need to solve the crime. They simply need to observe the procedures and methods of the RTP's investigation. No trial need be carried out, no alternative theories need be put forward. They simply need to look at the current evidence, look at the means of how the RTP arrived at their conclusions and then observe. Should they feel they were impeded in their observations im sure this will form a significant aspect of their reports. One can only conclude that the general has genuine faith in the RTP having caught the right people, since allowing the UK police on Thai soil to basically oversee the procedures of this investigation (and the reasons why they followed the leads they followed and discarded the leads they chose to discard), would smack of political naivety in the extreme. One need not find the real killers to establish corruption and collusion in the RTP. This case doesnt have to be solved to cause deep embarrassment to Thailand. Thus, its a huge risk to allow these 'observers' on Thai soil. Lets hope it pays off for the right people.

maxme Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 NSY has probably combed through ThaiVisa reports and comments to get the big picture. They will have more suspects than the RTP I think.Why would they even look at this site?I am curious to know where the "ThaiVisa reports" are located. All I can find is a bunch of civilians, with no access to the evidence, autopsy, police reports...., making comments and/or debating what has been reported about the case or in many cases theories based on what hasn't been reported. Aren't you a civilian? So where is your proof to debunk these theories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebrown Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 REF: ALL POSTINGS BY JDINISIA. Just to get things into perspective and explain jdinisia's repeated rebuttal of anything that isn't official RTP 'evidence/report', please bear in mind that he has business friends, as well as just 'friends' on KT. Coincidentally, some of these business friends happen to be Divemasters, who are unlikely to be working for a 'charitable' institution. Just thought it worth mentioning, because all TV posters expect openness from other TV members, rather than postings by people who do so under the cloud of 'conflict of interests'. Draw your own conclusions as to jdinisia's motives! If you can only see how you sound. My conclusion is you have lost touch with reality and have resorted to baseless and ignorant attacks because somebody mentioned they have friends. I don't have 'super human' faculties so I can't possibly see how I sound! Maybe you do, and are quite (mistakenly) happy with how you appear? But, to spell it out for you ...jdinisia has BUSINESS friends on KT. We've already seen TAT trying to 'paper over the cracks' before the funerals of the victims took place. You can't see any further than the end of your nose if you don't understand that in Thailand the Baht rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrypom Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 It seems it may be possible that authorities may be allowing the Brits more access than just observer status. If this is the case that is great but will not help those hell bent on conspiracy theories because nothing will convince them of any thing short of their being a set-up .... This despite the fact that police early on showed they were not scared or intimidated by the headsman family. Like other early suspects they came out publicly stating the headsman's family were involved but like other earlier suspects, they were ruled out. Do You claim to be English, or perhaps have English has your first language? I don't claim to be English but I can't answer the second part because I am having a hard time understanding what you are asking. Citizens from Australia, Canada, USA, New Zealand etc. are not English, but have English as there first language, not difficult really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatsujin Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 After a full autopsy foreign DNA is not likely to be present then adding in embalming makes it extremely unlikely. You can almost always get the corpse' DNA. what is your explanation of the son not giving his DNA? He refused, along with all other members of that family. This was at the time that they WERE still suspects and at around the same time they posted the million baht reward to encourage the finding of another scapegoat.

BoristheBlade Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Maybe the British Police have photo evidence from inside the AC Bar on the night of the murders. It would damage someones alibi considerably The high rank thai authorities are strangely quiet and under the surface.

mcm991 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 The British may have no authority in Thailand, but when did Thai Village Head men have the authority to obstruct law and order? is that part of the new Junta Constitution? How did he obstruct law and order? What I read is he met with police and he and his brother gave DNA samples and were cooperative with police as was the son who turned out to be in Bangkok when the murders occurred. JTJ, unless you personally saw the boy in Bangkok at the time of the murders.... it would be more accurate to say that he was allegedly not on the island. Without cross posting, always insisting that he was not on the island makes you look a little too much like the poster boy for the RTP. It would be jumping to conclusions to insist he was in Bangkok. There simply was not enough time to investigate his whereabouts before pronouncing him to be so squeaky clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdinasia Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 So why no prosecution?In any other country, conclusive DNA evidence is all that is required. Wrong. The DNA results in and of themselves prove sex not rape or murder.Edit to answer your edit. You need to work on those critical thinking skills and look into DNA evidence limitations particularly regarding legal issues. Hahahahaha. You are now totally floundering. DNA in this case does not prove rape or murder? Can others in this thread comment on this just to make sure I am right to be laughing my head off now/ DNA evidence cannot prove "murder" . . . it can show with a high probability of accuracy that the suspects DNA was found within or on or near the victim, however that doesn't in and of itself prove "rape" either. good point. Thank you. DNA found somewhere does not exclude it being planted. it does not mean the "donator" was there Care to explain how semen was planted???
